Please note the change of instructions for Java 11. For Java 11 please remove the "--add-exports=java.xml.bind" line from the vmoptions file and use the OpenJDK binaries for Windows and macOS.

Windows

1. Download and install the latest Java. It must be Java version 9 or higher. (JDK GA Release).
2. Download and install the latest non-beta BiglyBT release (BiglyBT - Download).
3. BACK UP YOUR TORRENT LIST! IT IS LIKELY YOU WILL LOSE IT!
4. Extract the hack files using 7-Zip (7-Zip Download) or equivalent to %PROGRAMFILES%\BiglyBT (C:\Program Files\BiglyBT) and overwrite ALL files.
5. Delete the "jre" folder in %PROGRAMFILES%\BiglyBT (C:\Program Files\BiglyBT).
6. Open the OpenJDK archive downloaded in step 1 and extract the "jdk-XX" folder to the BiglyBT folder %PROGRAMFILES%\BiglyBT (C:\Program Files\BiglyBT).
7. Rename the extracted "jdk-XX" folder to "jre".
8. Run Notepad as Administrator and open %PROGRAMFILES%\BiglyBT\BiglyBT.exe.vmoptions (C:\Program Files\BiglyBT\BiglyBT.exe.vmoptions), append the following line:
NOTE: If you want to run BiglyBT-console.exe perform step 8 but instead create file "BiglyBT-console.exe.vmoptions"

--patch-module=java.base=ghostfucker_utils.jar
--add-exports=java.base/sun.net.www.protocol=ALL-UNNAMED

9. Run BiglyBT and Enjoy!


macOS

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES

4c. Hold the "Option/Alt" key, then right click on the Finder icon in the dock and click Relaunch

I saw an issue with writing to the \program files dir in win 64
- which is when I installed a plug in for all users.

Once installed 'per user' it worked fine

This seems due to write access rights to the program directory

Not sure if yours is a related issue.

[lil-fella]

will there be a updated BiglyBT Extreme Mod 2.3.0.0 ??
as the 2.3.0.0 just came out..

Cut this shit out. There's no official 2.3.0.0 packaged release yet.

[adsadsdas23412341]

The option to automatically stop and remove seeding torrents does not work. Everything else works though. This option worked for me in version 1.9.0.0.

So, is anyone else having this issue? If it is a bug with version 2.2.02, I will downgrade back to 1.9.0.0.

[JP2020]

If you are referring to the 'stop torrent after xx - then no it doesnt work
I spotted that as I set it to carry on for a while if someone is downloading who has uploaded to me
- it just carried on.
BUT I do seem to recall having to set that to ensure it does stop on completion - which was new.

The stop torrent on completion does work - perhaps provided you also set that second catch all - might just have been the sometimes slow response (strange as its far quicker in most areas than my old setup)




What benefits have you (or anyone) actually seen from upgrading?
I have read the changelist)


Although this is vastly superior in most ways to my archaic vuze setup (which did what I needed) I am seeing a number of bugs, like deleting torrents leaves blank lines in the l/h pane until you manually close them - and which seem to sometimes reappear,
and a couple of more serious ones (for me) but certainly not show stoppers as such

I might install 1.9 and compare, but available time is limited at moment and trying to fit in currently more essential testing.

8. Run Notepad as Administrator and open %PROGRAMFILES%\BiglyBT\BiglyBT.exe.vmoptions (C:\Program Files\BiglyBT\BiglyBT.exe.vmoptions), append the following line:


--patch-module=java.base=ghostfucker_utils.jar
--add-exports=java.base/sun.net.www.protocol=ALL-UNNAMED

9. Run BiglyBT and Enjoy!



And remove the warning:
"Please note the change of instructions for Java 11. For Java 11 please remove the "--add-exports=java.xml.bind" line from the vmoptions file and use the OpenJDK binaries for Windows and macOS."

from your post as there currently is no
"--add-exports=java.xml.bind" line in your install instruction

Or do you mean the one that says:
"--add-exports=java.base/sun.net.www.protocol=ALL-UNNAMED" ?

????
This never got answered

My prog files BiglyBT.exe.vmoptions contains:

-include-options ${APPDATA}\BiglyBT\java.vmoptions
--patch-module=java.base=ghostfucker_utils.jar
--add-exports=java.base/sun.net.www.protocol=ALL-UNNAMED

why one dash on first line and 2 on other two - that right?


the ${APPDATA}\BiglyBT\java.vmoptions referred in there just has:

# place any java vm options in this file, one option per line, with a blank line at the bottom

[motalemb]

Just tried installing this on Linux. When I open Tools->Options the only thing it shows is "View will be available once BiglyBT Extreme Mod Core is done loading..:

[anon]

"View will be available once BiglyBT Extreme Mod Core is done loading..:

Did you follow this step of the Linux installation procedure?

6. Append the following VM options:

echo "--patch-module=java.base=ghostfucker_utils.jar" >> "~/.biglybt/java.vmoptions"
echo "--add-exports=java.base/sun.net.www.protocol=ALL-UNNAMED" >> "~/.biglybt/java.vmoptions"

If so, the quotes in the path name may be causing trouble (see https://www.sb-innovation.de/showthread.php?p=356937), so remove them and try again. Or you can just open the file with your text editor of choice and ensure the lines are there, in that order and at the bottom of the file.

[motalemb]

Ah yep the quotes were the issue. I added those two lines in, but still get "View will be available once BiglyBT Extreme Mod Core is done loading.."

Also, my distro only supports up to Java 11, so this is the most recent BiglyBT Extreme Mod I can use right? Are there any vulnerabilities that can be detected by trackers in this version that I should be aware of?

[anon]

Ah yep the quotes were the issue. I added those two lines in, but still get "View will be available once BiglyBT Extreme Mod Core is done loading.."

The only reasons I can think of are not having edited the file or extracted the mod files correctly. The two lines must be at the bottom of java.vmoptions and look exactly like this, no quotes or spaces...

--patch-module=java.base=ghostfucker_utils.jar
--add-exports=java.base/sun.net.www.protocol=ALL-UNNAMED

...plus an empty line at the end. Also, ghostfucker_utils.jar, BiglyBTSpoof.properties and the clientfiles subdirectory must be in the same place as BiglyBT.jar, which obviously should be the modded one (but the error message wouldn't mention "BiglyBT Extreme Mod Core" if that was not the case).

I think problems with the SWT library (perhaps a 32-bit vs. 64-bit mismatch?) can also cause this, but wouldn't know what else to add on that regard.

Also, my distro only supports up to Java 11, so this is the most recent BiglyBT Extreme Mod I can use right? Are there any vulnerabilities that can be detected by trackers in this version that I should be aware of?

Unfortunately there is a bug which under fairly obscure circumstances, can cause the wrong User-Agent string to be sent, making you easy to detect. This was fixed in 2.3.0.0_rev1 with help from --->HDBD<---. You should read his posts on the newer threads and do a test with a dummy torrent from a public tracker to see if you're affected. It was pretty hard to debug because it doesn't always happen, and during my tests it never did.

On a lesser note, this build also doesn't have the Peer Injector plugin I hacked up for BiglyBT (the original only worked on Vuze, didn't inject on private torrents and was no longer maintained); that was integrated in 2.3.0.0.

[motalemb]

Hm yep, I have file edited and mod files extracted correctly. No idea how SWT library plays into this or how to fix either. Don't think I can use this then...unfortunate :(

[anon]

Uh, this sucks. One way to possibly get a hint as to what's wrong is running Java from a terminal and storing its output. Under Linux this may involve doing something like this...

cd ~/biglybt
java -cp "BiglyBT.jar;swt.jar" -Djava.library.path="$PWD" --patch-module=java.base=ghostfucker_utils.jar --add-exports=java.base/sun.net.www.protocol=ALL-UNNAMED com.biglybt.ui.Main >/tmp/bbtem_error_log.txt 2>&1 </dev/null

...then you reach the part where the mod stalls, close it, and open /tmp/bbtem_error_log.txt to look for error messages or exceptions.

Another idea is running the mod from a root shell to see if it makes a difference. In theory root privileges shouldn't be necessary, but who knows.
